Welcome To Our Journal
We have been with Sophie now for 6 months! Life is sweet, but nothing is as sweet as Sophie. We both love parenting. I think it was what we were put here to do.
We try to keep updating as we have time. In the onslaught of bad press adoption is receiving lately it's important to know there are many many more happy stories than sad. And while getting pregant and giving birth is a beautiful thing, there are already so many childen, alive, lonely, and waiting, who need homes. Most adoption stories end well, for the parents and, more importantly, for the child. Somewhere a child is waiting for someone to love him or her. Maybe that will be you. Maybe somewhere your Sophie waits for you. We hope that someday we will be able to adopt again. We think it would be great for Sophie to have siblings, and we simply love what a magical wonderous thing life is with an adopted daughter in it.
Thanks for visiting!
